A rainbow...
A rainbow is God's way of telling us the storm is over.
A rainbow baby.
Abby is a rainbow baby. A rainbow signifies that the storm is over. After I miscarried, there was a storm. A horribly brutal one. It lasted a year. It rained EVERY DAY for a year. September 17th a rainbow formed. The storm was over. It stopped raining and the sky was clear enough so you could see where that rainbow began and where it ended. If pots of gold were real, you would have been able to see that too.
When I think about our rainbow baby, I am elated. I can hardly believe that she will be here in a month, maybe more, maybe less. It brings me to tears to think that in a short time, we will finally have what we have been longing for, for so long. I drown in my thoughts of her every day. I worry about her constantly. I feel helpless because I can't touch her, hold her, rock her...
Did you know that studies say that babies cry in the WOMB? I'm so glad we can't hear it. I would just lose it if I heard her crying but couldn't comfort her.
My patience grows thinner every day.
I just can't wait to have her.
I just can't.

So happy for you and your rainbow baby :) And I do believe you can comfort her if she's crying... talk to her and sing to her. These will be the most soothing sounds to her now and after she arrives :)
Hi Brittany!
I had a question for you about possibly collaborating on something (with My Life As A Sailor's Princess) and was hoping you could email me back to discuss? Thanks so much!
